In One to One to One we hear three women, watching and laughing at our protagonist in his writhing, self-flagellating efforts to impress, or at least to comprehend the figure in front of him. These three women, observing a man, in turn observing a woman, are the creative palindrome to the three ladies of “At the Carnival,” passionately wrought by Dine and interpreted in music by myself, in this whimsical attempt to celebrate the eternal complication of each of us looking at the other. Our subject’s efforts ultimately come to no avail, and the best we can conclude is there in Creeley’s text: “And the power to tell is glory. One unto one unto one. And though all mistake it, it is one.”
